US State 4: Colorado

I remember the sign saying "Welcome to Colorado"

I remember it coming as a surprise.

I remember too the feeling sinking in that I was now entering my fourth state and the avid collector part of my brain began to whirr into motion!

We stopped shortly after the sign and we all got off the bus for dinner in a diner which had some wonderful views of some mountains.

We then set off and arrived into Denver at 10pm.

I know Mum was impressed by the thought of the 'Mile High City'. I was a bit tired and dazed so didn;t ventyurte out at that time of night.

At midnight I got onto another bus; this one bound for Chicago, where it would arrive 21 hours later.

As we pulled out of the bus station, it started to rain.
